Best Steamed Bread Pudding Recipes

STEAMED BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• In the top of 1-1/2-qt. double boiler, place melted butter; set aside. In a bowl, combine egg, milk, corn syrup, sugar, baking soda and spices. Mix until smooth. Stir in raisins and crumbs.

Meanwhile, for sauce, combine butter, sugar, water, egg and lemon juice in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Add lemon zest. Serve sauce hot over warm pudding.

STEAMED CARAMEL BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Melt butter in a small pan over medium heat. Add 1 cup sugar and stir occasionally until dissolved. Stop stirring once the mixture comes to a boil. Stay near the stove to monitor the color, swirling the pan gently to redistribute caramel as sugar begins to darken. Cook to about 310 degrees F (160 degrees C) or until the sugar turns light golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat immediately, as sugar will continue to darken.
• Combine bread cubes, milk, condensed milk, eggs, vanilla, 1 teaspoon sugar, cinnamon, cardamom, and coriander in a blender; puree everything together. Pour batter on top of caramel.
• Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil.
• Cover bread pudding and place in the steamer; cook until a knife comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool to room temperature, 45 minutes to an hour. Cool in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Remove from the refrigerator and turn out onto a plate to serve.
